The root systems of trees in tropical rain forests expand outward from the tree because
◦ there is a shortage of rainfall in the region tends to prohibit effective plant growth.
◦ the mineral content of the soil is shallow and hence roots expand laterally rather than vertically to exploit the shallow nutrient layer.
◦ the ground layer of vegetation in tropical forests is so thick so the roots extract nutrients from the vegetation.
◦ the ground temperatures in tropical forests are too high to allow for deep roots.
◦ the trees are very short and do not need deep roots.
